One horrid morning on January 27th, I awoke from my slumber to glance at the clock, which read 7:45am. I was almost an hour late for
work! After scurrying in the shower, I get dressed and brush my teeth. I then head out the door, skipping breakfast. When I get to work, I see a car ran over the curb of the parking lot.
Curious and questionable, I stroll over to the lady sitting over the curb. She explained that her two year old son decided to move the gear into drive, and step on the gas. She then asked me to
reverse the car back into it’s spot, and I did as she called her husband. Her husband was my boss, Dr. F! When he approached he thought I did something wrong, but his wife explained the situation.
Mr. F apologized and recognized my effort, and completely forgot I was late. After a few days, he paid more attention to me and saw my effort, so promoted me to assistant manager. I was very
thankful to help his wife, because I went from probably being fired to being promoted, respected, and acknowledged by my boss!
